Pacman World it's technically not a classic game but it is definitely an old game. But If I had to pick an old arcade game it would me dig dug.

I doubt other people here might know about its existence but whatever...

 

Ignition (1997)

I could consider it late classical. Btw this is the only classic I currently have lol and yeah I played other classics before.

Pokemon Red and Pokemon Silver. There aren't any other games that held so much magic for me. Back then, the Internet was new to me and there were so many tall tales about catching Mew (Celebi in Silver) by pushing trucks and getting the GS ball and all that stuff. I loved exploring every part of those games to obtain those Pokemon. To this day I regret not pulling it off with Celebi. I caught Mew using the Mew glitch, but for Celebi I had to resort to using my Xploder.

Mine are:

 

Tetris

Super Mario Sunshine

Raiden

Ridge Racer 5

Especially Ace Combat Zero (all the games minus Assault Horizon)

SoulCaliburs 2 and 3 (PS2).

I didnt played that much older Games, but my favorite more older games would be Worms, Worms Armageddon and World Party, which i played Hours and Hours as a Kid. 

 

And Super Mario Bros 3 and World. And Pac-Attack was also really really great. 

If you like games such as Worms you should try Hogs of War. Haven't played it myself yet but seems like a very similar concept. You can get it off of Steam, I believe. Very low requirements since it was originally available in the PS1 era.

Super Mario Bros 3

Space Invaders

The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time

The Legend of Zelda: Majora's Mask

Final Fantasy 7 (if that counts)

The Streets of Rage series, I guess.

 

I don't consider ps2 or anything of that era and newer to be "classic," they're not that old. Or am I just ancient compared to you people? Apparently a lot of people not much younger than me owned an Xbox 360 first and were "raised" on it.

 

I am older than you and I consider the PS2 classic now. It's 2 generations old, and almost 15 years old. People were calling NES "classic" in the PS2 era despite being around 15 years old as well. The other major difference is that the 360 and PS3 literally lasted 10 years, so it's one of the longest generations of gaming.

Its an easy choice for me. Final Fantasy VI. It was the greatest game back then for me. Even today it holds the pinnacle of my favorite RPG.

[Envy 6,004]

If we're counting the GCN era as well, then I suppose I can play it pretty straight with my favorites (I'm old).

 

Animal Crossing GCN

Super Smash Bros. Melee

Pokemon Crystal

Paper Mario/Paper Mario The Thousand Year Door

The Legend of Zelda Majora's Mask

The Legend of Zelda Twilight Princess

 

Seriously, if those are what we consider 'classic' now, I'm old. >.<

I already played that game, but thanks for telling me anyways.^^

Here in Europe, it was released together with Worms in a 2 Games Pack, which i had.

Its a very fun 3D Worms like game, but actual 3D Worms Games like Worms 3D or Worms 4 Mayhem have just the better controls  and are way more fun.

It was a little hard to move with the Pigs and to shoot correctly and i couldnt beat the game, because it got a little bit to difficult for me.

 

But yes, Hogs of War can be also be considered one of my favorite classic video games, but i like Worms 3D more.

Mario 64 and Pokemon Gold/Silver.

I will divide it up by console, and over more than one post (so I'm doing so). Otherwise, this would take at least an hour and would take up a whole page (as it's so hard not to mention a ton of them). So here's a top 6 list for the Nintendo 64 and the Gamecube (being that those were probably the consoles I played the most aside from the DS)

 

Nintendo 64

1. Super Mario 64 (Prefer the DS remake though)
2. Banjo-Kazooie ( Played it  some at a convention last week, actually )
3. Donkey Kong 64 
4. Star Fox 64
5. Bomberman Hero (It's a classic in its own right)
6. Dr. Mario 64

 

Gamecube

1. Super Smash Bros. Melee (The first game I remember ever playing somewhat competitively)
2. Mario Kart: Double Dash!! (Best Mario Kart)
3. Star Fox Assault (Not as classic as 64, but still classic, definitely)
4. Pokémon XD
5. Sonic Adventure 2: Battle
6. Animal Crossing

I can't decide between pokemon, metroid and the legend of zelda.

I love 'em all

[Lucky Bolt 34,915]

I like to play the older 2000s versions of the NASCAR PS games on occasion...if that counts?

[applesjck 5,601]

Pokémon Silver, Ocarina of Time, and if I’m allowed to count GCN as well then throw in Thousand Year Door to the list as well.

[Pastel Heart 6,463]

Pokemon Crystal on GBC I'd say is not only my favorite classic game, but overall game of all time. I also adore Paper Mario, Star Fox 64 and Majoras Mask, all on my beloved N64

[Early Sunsets 2,106]

MechWarrior 2 is definitely my overall favorite. Zelda OOT is another amazing one, too.

[Cocokoru 133]

I really love the GameCube era. There a too many games I could talk about, so I will just go with Pokémon Colosseum.
